What Causes Hard Raised Bumps On Arm?

My 19 m old son has two red, hard, raised bumps on arm. They don t seem to have a head on them but will ooze if I try to squeeze them. They have been there for 4 days or so. I thought insect bites maybe. But they aren t going down or getting better. They seem sore if I touch them. He pulls away and touches them softly himself, but doesn t itch them or seem to notice them otherwise. Reason to be conserned?

Hi,

If the vaginal itching does not go with OTC products one needs to:
* Go for prescription products
* Get vaginal swab test done to find type or organisms causing the symptoms.

* It may be bacterial and need totally different medicine.
* Uncontrolled diabetes can cause uncontrolled itching.
* Sexual relation may cause reinfection and increased symptoms; sex must be stopped.
You can apply Micanozole skin cream mixed with steroid cream to have temporary relief and go for finding and managing above factors.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Vasudha Jayant Athavale, General & Family Physician
